I voted 3rd party even though I know it was essentially a vote for Trump. If I had to vote R or D, I would have voted R.

Many people argue that the R party of today is not that of 30 years ago. Same goes for the D party. You are losing the silent, moderate majority.

Dems already LOST the silent, moderate majority. We lost the union vote for goodness sake. How was that not the canary in the coal mine for the DNC? We need to drop wokeness and get back to the middle quickly.

They are in the middle. The values and policies they support are supported by the majority of people. Things like "woke" and "CRT" are weaponized terms meant to scare people when the reality is, very very different and not malign at all. But it is too late and now we are on the dawn of a Christian Nationalist fascist state. I hope the Leopards don't eat too many faces.

You must not live in a very progressive area if you haven't seen CRT taught to your kids. It's been going on for 4 years here.

“CRT” was 2020. Didn’t you receive your update talking points?

Sorry your gal l0st.

Calling any grown woman a "gal" is demeaning but referring to an educated, accomplished woman who has been elected to the 2nd highest office in the land is as despicable as calling her a "n.§§.r gal.". You really are garbage.

This is exactly the kind of thing insane progressives do that cost your gal the election.

Pretty much. It was never about Kamala. It was about making sure lunatics like this poster were dispossessed from political power. Plus you notice that person was the one throwing around racial slurs? Nobody else was.

I’m right here. Bachelors with dual majors in economics and mathematics, dual minors in philosophy and anthropology. Masters in econometrics. Insatiable reader of history books and some fiction. Also worked as a mechanic and doing construction in high school and college, so I have practical life skills too.

If there’s anything you want explained to you, please just let me know. I would be happy to help.

And that’s not an insult that is simply the truth. Very sad commentary on the state of our nation. One thing is true-the public education system (especially in rural poorer states) needs to greatly improve. People aren’t taught civics or basic economics and are unable to differentiate between misinformation and fact and that has absolutely nothing to do with immigration. It’s been this way for many many years.

And what has your party suggested to improve the education system.

Are you capable of making a point without feigning sadness for others. If you are in a position to understand these issues, what have you done to help them? Which policies thst could change their educational syatem have you held your party accountable for? You just love to sit comfortably on your high chair and feign sadness.

Well, they are speaking for themselves, and they spoke loud and clear. You can keep pretending to be sad about their educational system.

From yesterday's earnings calls - you could hear the CEOs salivating over the line

Referring to a proposed Republican spending bill earlier this year that would have funded 50,000 beds in immigration detention, Hininger said that figure now “feels to be a floor, especially with Republicans now going to control both the Senate and likely the House.” He referred to press reports suggesting a “much higher level” of potential detention capacity, and said the company was working on a plan to make “every single bed that we’ve got in the enterprise” available for use. Zoley said GEO Group was “well-positioned” to scale up from its current 13,500 ICE detention beds to “over 31,000 beds.”

He separately noted that other contracts with federal, state and local governments cover 85,000 beds, and that the company could redirect those contracts toward these federal purposes. There will likely be a “scramble” for beds, he said later, “and we believe ICE will have top priority on all available beds around the country.”

Zoley also referred to the potential for “the need for some soft-sided facilities around the country” to jail “lower”-security detainees.

Responding to a question about the difference between detaining people who’ve just crossed the border, and people who are in deportation proceedings beginning in the interior of the country, Zoley emphasized that private jails would be necessary.

“I’ve been told recently [that it will take] several weeks if not a few months to detain these people and make final arrangements for their removal,” he said. GEO Group didn’t respond to questions about who “told” him that.

Where do you propose to put the illegals? In the tents used by the Israelis when they force Palestinians off their land before bombing them?

Democrats want the illegals in hotel rooms paid for by taxpayers like in New York. A bunch of nonprofits also place the illegals in apartment buildings and help them pay for their rent.

No, the current Democratic party is not in the middle. Lax immigration policies, “progressive” prosecutors, allowing biological males to compete in female sports, unchecked violent protests on college campuses because “freedom of speech”, cancelling/branding as racist anyone who disagrees with liberal viewpoints, none of these are centrist and all were roundly rejected by the electorate this week.

Exactly. I don’t much like Trump as a person, but there is no way I would vote for anyone from the Biden administration that implemented those terrible, far-left policies. Kamala Harris and her campaign thought messaging could override what we’ve lived through the past four years? They were delusional thinking many Republicans would vote for them, given their far-left agenda.

They are probably all in this thread. Since there are not that many.

The never Trump Republicans are not representative of the party. They are a very vocal group of elites who think their opinion matters more than it actually does to people. The exit polls show only 5% of Republicans voted for Harris, compared to 4% of Democrats who voted for Trump. The “Republicans for Harris” campaign was a total bust. The discontented former Republican officials who endorsed Harris were the biggest losers of the election. They endorsed a losing candidate from the opposing party. They failed to mobilize Republican voters to vote for Harris. Their political careers are over. I have to laugh that Harris wasted so much of her time with Liz Cheney, thinking that an official who was overwhelmingly defeated in her primary election was going to deliver her large numbers of Republican voters.

Trump's term will be a disaster, just like the last one was.

To know him is to hate him.

Just wait until he tries to govern and his "I don't know nothing about Project 25" Project 25 laws start getting shoved down people's throats.

You can stop claiming Trump’s first term was horrible. Nobody’s buying it any more. $2/gallon gas, 1.5% inflation, border under control. Yeah, what a nightmare
